Apparently there is a whole armada of Spongebob Squarepants alarm clocks, but none of them are a replica of the one used by Spongebob himself on the show; and I’m really surprised by that. Statistically speaking there are “morning people” who want to emulate the sponge’s wake-up routine.

Pretty straightforward design. A lot of fun stuff could be done with the internals, like a Power Supply that looks like the Ecto Containment Unit. The graphics card could look like the Ecto-1.
